What is Sentiment Mining § Also referred to as sentiment analysis or opinion
mining § It refers to the application of natural language
processing, computational linguistics, and text analytics to identify and extract subjective information in source materials. (Wikipedia)
§ Its aim is to determine the attitude or mood of a user or user group (i.e. happy or sad) the contextual polarity of statements or larger documents (i.e. positive or negative) the intended emotional communication (i.e. sarcasm or irony)

Why Sentiment Mining § Capture and analyse public opinion § Capturing the word-of-mouth effect § Evaluate the social profile of individual § News detection and analysis § Quantify the emotional state of users (i.e. duress,
stress, sadness, angriness, etc.) § Feedback mechanism to e.g. policy makers § National (e.g., UK riots) and § International ( االلععررببيي للررببييعع or ‘Arab Spring’)
events that impact and resonate in peoples’ daily lives

Challenges § Sentiment is a subjective measure and as such is subject
to interpretation § Data Volumes
Number of statements, users, documents, etc. Size of documents and the complexity (topic, sentence, paragraph, chapter, document level)
§ Noise, and unstructured data § Slang, vernaculars, abbreviations (i.e. wdc, cu, ru, lol, etc.) § Language heterogeneity
Demographic dependencies Social dependency
§ Ambivalence § Complexity of NLP tasks

Methods § Keyword-based approaches § Machine learning techniques
Latent semantic analysis Support vector machines "bag of words” Methods Naive Bayes classifiers Other NLP tools that allow the detailed parsing of text related sources including the underlying grammar.

Applications § Reputation Management § Customer Profiling § Product Management § News Detection and Analysis § Public Opinion Analysis § Affective Computing where systems should
